أَخْبَرَنَا عِمْرَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى بْنِ مُجَاشِعٍ حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ النَّرْسِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا مُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَوْفًا يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ قَسَامَةَ هُوَ ابْنُ زُهَيْرٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ
«مَثَلُ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ الْقُرْآنَ وَالْإِيمَانَ كَمَثَلِ أُتْرُجَّةٍ طَيِّبِ الطَّعْمِ طَيِّبِ الرِّيحِ وَمَثَلُ مَنْ لَمْ يُعْطَ الْقُرْآنَ وَلَمْ يُعْطَ الْإِيمَانَ كَمَثَلِ الْحَنْظَلَةِ مُرَّةِ الطَّعْمِ لَا رِيحَ لَهَا وَمَثَلُ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ الْإِيمَانَ وَلَمْ يُعْطَ الْقُرْآنَ كَمَثَلِ التَّمْرَةِ طَيِّبَةِ الطَّعْمِ وَلَا رِيحَ لَهَا وَمَثَلُ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ الْقُرْآنَ وَلَمْ يُعْطَ الْإِيمَانَ كَمَثَلِ الرَّيْحَانَةِ مُرَّةِ الطَّعْمِ طَيِّبَةِ الرِّيحِ»

✧ “The example of one who is given the Qurʾān and faith is that of a citron: pleasant in taste and pleasant in smell. The example of one who is not given the Qurʾān nor faith is that of a colocynth: bitter in taste and no smell. The example of one who is given faith but not the Qurʾān is that of a date: pleasant in taste but no smell. The example of one who is given the Qurʾān but not faith is that of sweet basil: bitter in taste but pleasant in smell.”
